Ive had a couple, all have broke at some time.
Seemed accurate but 1.5 years is the longest one had lasted.

Not sure if it's still available but mine is just the old style Harley's antilog one. Still works on my 04.

Seems to be a lot of money. I wouldn't rely on some digital device when all you need to do is keep an eye on your oil level. The only time the temp should get too high is when the oil level is too low. Don't substitute basic diligence with something that can ruin your day if it fails.

That's the 1 I use too.
But we don't know what you're riding.

Just me, I wouldn't trust a digi for oil level when it's so easy to get to and eyeball check it
and that seems like a CRAZY price
Does that say $309 ?!?!
is this the same thing?
Oil Level and Temperature Dipstick with Lighted LCD Readout- Chrome 62700005A | Harley-Davidson USA

I can be a gadget geek, but there's not $160 worth of geek cool factor there...


I did buy a dial temp gauge like the other two members
Used it for a year to know what oils temps were for my riding


..L.T.A.
